• Ensure that the mounting surface, anchor and screws
are sufficiently strong.
• Do not mount the product on a plaster board or a
wooden section because they are too weak. If the
product is unavoidably mounted on such a section,
the section shall be sufficiently reinforced.
Do not place this product in the following places:
• Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a
swimming pool
• Locations subject to humidity, dust, steam and oil
smoke
• Locations where a radiation, an X-ray, a strong radio
wave or a strong magnetic field is generated
• Locations where corrosive gas is produced, locations
where it may be damaged by briny air such as sea-
shores
• Locations where the temperature is not within the
specified range (
☞
page 36).
• Locations subject to vibrations (This product is not
designed for on-vehicle use.)
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of
severe changes in temperature (In case of installing
the product in such locations, the dome cover may
become foggy or condensation may be caused on
the cover.)
Screw tightening
• The screws and bolts must be tightened with an
appropriate tightening torque according to the materi-
al and strength of the installation area.
• Do not use an impact driver. Use of an impact driver
may damage the screws or cause tightening exces-
sively.
• When a screw is tightened, make the screw at a right
angle to the surface. After tightening the screws or
bolts, perform visual check to ensure tightening is
enough and there is no backlash.
Remove the cover film from the dome section of the
dome cover after the installation is complete.
Be sure to remove this product if it is not in use.
When noise disturbance may happen
Conduct the power distribution work to keep a distance of
1 m {3.28 feet} or more from the 120 V (for U.S. and
Canada) or 220 V - 240 V (for Europe and other countries)
power line. Or conduct the electric conduit work sepa-
rately.
